To all of you that run, wow. I did a 5k today and kept wondering when the fun was that all of the runners says happens. I was miserable for all 3.1 miles. Despite unicorns throwing colored powder at me.
Y'all can keep your running. The next time I run is going to be if something deadly is chasing me.
Keep on losing!

We had a high school graduation for our oldest daughter last week, so the whole schedule was a bit off. And this week is complicated by college orientation. But this week:
Monday Fencing 3.0 hours tonight
Tuesday - TRX class 1 hour and some weights
Wednesday - Normally, I'd fence for 2 hours - I will look to see if a fencing club in Pittsburgh has open bouting, but not sure I'll find that. Hoping to get to the gym, but have to leave at noon to drive to Pittsburgh (5 hours) for daughter's college orientation. Maybe a workout at the hotel gym when we get in
Thursday - Miles and miles and miles of walking on campus related stuff. (and maybe a workout at the hotel)
Friday - Miles and miles of walking and a 5 hour drive home
Saturday - Heavy duty Gym day
Sunday - Color Run 5k - it's the first and last 5k I'll do - I've found out in this process I HATE running. (I have bad knees, so it really hurts.)
Keep on losing!

Hi everyone hope you all had a good week and got in what you hoped to do. I almost did all of mine but I did not do my bike today. It has been a very emotional few days for me. Lots of tears. My best friend lost his father thursday morning and thursday night is brother was killed on his motorcycle. I think today everything just caught up to me and I felt like I could not do a thing.
Monday Bike 80 minute make up for today
Tue swim 60 minute
Wed swim 60 minute
Thursday 40 minute run with 4 hills repeat and 60 minute ride
Friday rest
Saturday 30 minute open water swim 20 minute run
sunday 70k bike ride
I agree with you slow the run down and try for 2 minutes at a slower pace and a minute of walking or even do one minute and one minute for a few weeks. Why is it when people first start out they always want speed.I am still trying to get my short little legs to go faster
My recommendation is to slow both down. Walking should not be an intense workout. It's recovery for the next running interval. Also, don't be afraid to repeat weeks until you can get it right.
